Frankie Boyle

"Sounds like Billy Connolly, and has the attention-holding flair of a natural story-teller" Herald

You would have to look long and hard to find an act more capable of satisfying any audience than twenty-eight year old Frankie Boyle. From his Glasgow hometown to some of the biggest clubs on the London circuit, Frankie has played every major venue and conquered every crowd.

This master of the mic is quite simply one of the most consistent performers on the UK circuit. Having appeared at the best-known clubs, the biggest universities, major comedy festivals, high-profile corporate functions and popular TV shows including "The Stand Up Show"(BBC1) and "Comedy Network"(C5) Frankie's vast experience ensures audience satisfaction every time.

In high demand throughout the UK, Frankie has also appeared at a number of major festivals, including Celtic Connections in Glasgow and the Edinburgh Fringe. For four consecutive years, from 1998 to 2001, Frankie has been one of the highlights of the "Best of Scottish Comedy".

Now in his fifth year as a full-time pro, Frankie matches the confidence and composure of a master comedian with the energy and enthusiasm of an eager young star. The results are never less than sensational. Putting a thoroughly modern spin on a traditional observational style, Frankie presents his universal humour with boundless energy that is impossible to ignore.

With his natural flair for crowd control and stunning ability for off-the-cuff humour, Frankie Boyle made a smooth transition from headline act to brilliant compère at major venues such as the Newcastle Hyena, Birmingham Glee and Glasgow Stand. More than comfortable with either role, his act has gone from strength to strength, helping to establish him as one of the foremost talents on the stand-up scene.
